The Dying Rooms (1995)

A film crew exposes the silent deaths of unwanted children under China’s one-child policy

A team of investigative filmmakers travels across mainland China to explore the consequences of the country’s one-child policy, focusing on orphanages where unwanted children are sent. Using hidden cameras and false identities, they uncover the existence of “dying rooms” or places where baby girls and disabled infants are left to die from neglect and lack of care.
